This is an ALPHA version of sysv ipc. Messages and semaphores (without undo) are implemented. COPYING: These files are distributed under the GNU copyleft. There's a copy in the file ...src/linux/COPYING with the linux distribution. FILES: Untar ipc.tar.Z to get a directory ipc. The kernel source does not need patching except for the addition of a syscall. There is a README file in ipc/ that describes installation. There are test programs and user programs in the subdirectory ipc/test. BUGS: At present the ipc_init call does not load user specified parameters. It uses the default values given in the include files. Given the requirement of sysv ipc compatibility there is still room for development. Glad to hear your suggestions. krishna balasub@cis.ohio-state.edu
